The leggy is finally on the road. Come to find out, my problem was a bad O2 sensor and the major problem was a damn paint chip blocking the oil passage to my Intake HLA on the driver side. Which worries me, wonder where else did the paint chips get to. Any who, going to change oil and spark plugs tomorrow.

How did you get paint chips in there?

The oil pan has paint on the inside of it. When I gave it to the machine shop with the rest of my stuff. The hot bath didn't get it all out. I tried to media blast the rest out, but couldn't get behind the baffles........Honestly the more I think about it. The machine shop prolly didn't take the rockers apart when they washed it because the the oil filter should have caught the paint chip? It was a pretty big chip like a quarter inch diameter. Hmm, I just don't know.
